Blake’s P.O.V.
Previously
Paris, Blake, Drake, Mere, Cassie, Shad, Dad,
Caiah, Mylan, and I were all
crowding around the table in my living room. The results were finally in. It
was like everyone was scared to look inside.
“I just
want you two to know that no matter what’s in this envelope, nothing will
change,” Dad promised them. They nodded as he opened it.
“Wait!”
Blake said. Paris turned to her and tried to calm her down. “Okay, go on,” she
wiped some tears. They stood together wrapped in each other’s arms to await
their faith.
~
“And it
says that Paris and Blakelynn are not my kids,” he finished. I let out a sigh
of relief. There’s nothing wrong with Nicki’s Dad but I didn’t wanna be his
kid.
“Thank
god,” Paris sighed. Everyone cheered as we got over it. I nodded towards the
kitchen and he followed. I turned around and Shad was standing in front of me.
“Give me
his number,” I demanded. I had to have it at the moment. He can finally know
that we’re actually his children.
“I knew you
would ask that,” he smirked. I crossed my arms and let out a small smile. Shad
and that stupid smirk gets him in trouble.
“Well what
kind of half brother would you be if you didn’t?” I tilted my head. Yeah, Shad’s
my half brother. I connected the dots and confronted him not too long ago.
“Whatever,”
he laughed while telling me his number. I grabbed my phone before typing it in
and saving it.
“I can’t
believe that you made me think that you liked me!” I hit his chest. He legit made
me think that and now that’s absolutely disgusting to think about.
“I had to
do something to keep an eye on you,” he shrugged. He could’ve thought of a
better plan than that. I swear he doesn’t think sometimes.
“As far as
he knows, I’m not his daughter okay?” I cocked an eyebrow at him. I didn’t want
him to know yet. I don’t know why but he doesn’t deserve to know yet.
“Whatever
you say sis,” he held his hands up. I learned that he’ll do anything I say and
it’s nice to know that. Being a little sister comes in handy.
“Actually
could you take me to his house?” I pleaded. I thought a surprise visit would be
nice to do. I don’t know if I would want to hug him or tell him off.
“What about
Paris?” He looked back in the living room. Paris can suck it up and I’ll deal
with it later. She doesn’t understand this like I do. I’ve known since he left
that he walked out of my life. She just found out a couple of months ago so I
think I have the upper hand on this one.
“This is
something that I need to do for myself,” I walked over to the table and grabbed
the results before anyone could notice. I ran and made a copy before returning
them and stuffing the copy in my purse. Paris might hate me after this but I’ll
call us even.
Jaymie’s
P.O.V.
“So this is
what you do when you have free time?” His voice scared the life out of me. He
needs to stop doing that shit! I’ve always been easy to scare and he enjoys
that.
“I’m gonna
hurt you the next time you scare me like that!” I snapped at Aubrey as he came
and sat on the couch. “Who let you in?” I asked because Daven was out.
“Kolbie,
she was leaving with Nyra when she saw me,” he shrugged. Great, I’ll never hear
the end of this from her.
“Did she
laugh?” I grinned. Kolbie always joked that we were soul mates and all that
extra bullshit. I think she was the one hurt the most when we finally broke up.
“Yeah, she
said I knew you two would find each other again,” he grinned back. I didn’t
even know that he was still living in New York. The last time we texted, he
said that he was thinking about moving down south. I thought he did that but I
guess something kept him here, or someone for that matter.
“So your
girl looks young. How old is she?” I looked at him. She looked really young
like she was still in high school.
“Same age
as your boy,” he stated. I knew that he was gonna say something about Daven’s
age but I didn’t wanna hear it.
“She’s
eighteen?” My eyes bucked out. I knew that she looked young but I didn’t think
that I was right about that.
“Yep, what
is someone like you doing with a boy like him?” He sat up a bit. Here we go
with this conversation.
“I got
screwed over by guys older than me so when I met him, I went with it. He’s
sweet,” I smiled. Daven’s been the sweetest boyfriend that I’ve ever had so I
don’t mind that he’s a few years younger than me.
“Do you
love him?” He lied back again. I tensed up at that question because I didn’t
exactly know how to answer it. Love is such a complicated word.
“Yeah I
guess,” I shrugged while placing my feet in his lap. I mean we’ve been together
for a while and we say I love you.
“You
guess?” He cocked an eyebrow. Of course he wants me to explain this answer and
I didn’t know how to.
“I mean I
do love him but I’ve loved other people harder than I’ve loved him,” I
elaborated. I’ve loved a lot of my old boyfriends more than Daven and that
includes Aubrey.
“I feel
you,” he nodded.
“What about
you? Do you love her?” I was curious. She’s pretty and they seemed like they
were really into each other yesterday so I could see it.
“Yeah,
she’s my world man. I love that girl too much,” he had a glow. I smiled as I
saw how much he really cared about her. He doesn’t glow that often so she must
be pretty important to him.
“You never
even glowed that much when you talked about Nebby,” I looked at him weird. He
loved Nebby with everything in him so that’s surprising.
“I love her
more than I ever loved Nebby,” he said simply. I guess he’s pretty committed to
this girl more than he ever was to Nebby.
“Do you
love her more than you love me?” I raised an eyebrow. He looked over at me as I
let a grin cross my face.
“Now don’t
do that to me. You know the love I have for you is different,” he rubbed my
feet. I knew that he would say that but I’m not accepting that answer.
“Elaborate
please,” I laid my head back as his hands relaxed me. He’s always been good at
foot massages and I’ve always needed them from those damn heels.
“I’ve known
you for most of my life. You were there before Nebby. You were my first time
and there was a point in my life where I swore you would be my wife,” he tried
to explain.
“You mean
that?” I was shocked. I had no idea that he used to care for me that way. I
always thought that we were just first love sweethearts.
“I wouldn’t
lie to you Jayms,” he locked eyes with me. He never lies to me and I appreciate
that and I do the same to him.
“Well then
your girl is very lucky,” I smirked. She’s lucky that she has someone like
Aubrey because he’s pretty amazing.
“Your boy
is lucky too. I don’t know how you think he could handle you in the bedroom
though,” he laughed. Here we go with his cockiness.
“He can
handle me better than you ever could,” I mouthed off. I knew that I was talking
shit but I was not about to let him play Daven like that.
“Bet,” he
shook his head. He never would believe me and I don’t even believe myself. It’s
different when I have sex with Daven. He’s a romantic but sometimes I wish that
he was more aggressive in the bedroom.
“I’m
serious!” I hit him. He thinks that every girl he had sex with thinks of him as
the best that they ever had.
“How many
orgasms do you hit with him?” He pulled me closer. Now he wants the true
answers and I wasn’t gonna lie to him.
“Four,” I
whispered. I knew what he was gonna say next and just for that I hate him.
Daven was great in bed but Aubrey was pure perfection.
“And how
many did you hit with me?” He pushed some hair out of my face. I smile a little
as his fingers brushed my face.
“I don’t
know,” I blushed. That was so long ago and it’s not like I wanna actually tell
him the answer to this one.
“I know you
remember,” he tilted my head up. We locked eyes and I knew that I couldn’t lie
to him.
“I really
don’t know; I lost count after eight,” I said truthfully. We used to go round
after round with each other.
“Point
proven,” he had a grin. I pushed him before laughing.
Blake’s P.O.V.
“How’d you
sneak away from Cassie?” I asked Shad as flew through the sky. We had to go
from New York to New Orleans. Why does he have to live so far away though I’ve
always wanted to go to New Orleans. I’ve heard so many great things about that
city and just the vibe from it.
“I told her
I was visiting my dad which is true,” he responded. I guess that’s not really a
surprise to her because he visits all the time.
“I can’t
believe you’re my brother,” I shook my head. It’s hard to believe that just
because it’s so weird. I mean he’s Shad and now he’s my brother?
“I’m twenty
two and you’re seventeen. This was before he was with your mom. He left my mom
when I was two. So he was with your mom for three years before you and Paris
were born,” he explained.
“That’s too
much math for me,” I shook my head. I absolutely hate math and I don’t need a
math lesson today.
“Alright so
I told you that they’re other siblings right?” He looked over at me. I nodded
and he continued. “There’s Carly, Ciara, and Colton. They are triplets and
they’re twelve. After dad thought that you and Paris weren’t his, he went back
to my mom,” he explained further. I nodded again and prepared myself for this.
I knew one thing for sure; my Dad got too many kids.
~
Shad and I
got off the plane and grabbed our stuff. “Who’s picking us up?” I asked
hesitantly. I didn’t want just some random person picking us up.
“My cousin,
Zach,” he looked for him.
“Shad!” A
guy yelled. He was very tall and looked a little intimidating. I never really
liked being around boys who aren’t related to me. They just make me uncomfortable
in general.
“Zach!” Shad
ran to him and did a chest bump with him. He’s suck a dork but he’s my dorky
brother apparently.
“Zach, this
is my little sis Blakelynn,” he introduced us. It’s weird being called his
little sister but it’s nice. I’ve never had an older sibling so it’s nice to
know that someone is looking out for me.
“You ain’t
tell me that your sister was this fine. And you’re a twin?” He looked me up and
down. This is exactly why guys make me uncomfortable.
“First
don’t talk about her like that. Also, she’s a lesbian and has a hot girlfriend
so sucks for you,” he pushed his head. He sighed in frustration and that made
me giggle a bit.
“What about
your sister?” He looked hopeful. Paris would never go for a guy like him even
if he was the last man on the planet. She likes a certain race and that doesn’t
have him in it.
“She has a
man,” I laughed as he threw his head back. He led us to his car and we headed
for dad’s house. I grew nervous and I guess Shad could tell.
“It’s gonna
be fine,” he grabbed my hand to calm me down. I sighed as we reached the house.
We got out and Shad used his key to get in. “Where’s everybody!?” He yelled
throughout the house.
“Shad’s
home!” Colton ran to him. He’s taller than the pictures were but he still
looked the same. He has the same eyes and nose as me.
“Wassup
boy?” He hugged him.
Colton
stepped back and stared at me. I hope he didn’t think that I was his
girlfriend. He looked at me a little bit longer before talking.
“You’re
Blakelynn,” he smiled at me. Wait, did he just call me by my name? Not even my
nickname, he called me by my full name.
“How do you
know that?” I questioned him. How in the world does he know my full name or who
I even am?
“Dad talks
about you all the time. He also talks about Paris and we have pictures,” he
pointed to the hallways. I walked towards it and they had huge pictures of
Ciara, Colton, and Carly. I got to the end and saw and huge picture of Paris
and me when we were first born.
“Wow,” I
covered my hand with my mouth. I didn’t know that he even still cared about us.
I sat on the couch with Shad as we talked to all three of the kids. They were
cute and reminded me a lot of myself when I was their age. Suddenly, we heard
the door open.
“Dad!”
Ciara ran to him. He walked into the living room and locked eyes with mine
immediately.
Nicki’s
P.O.V.
“So what do
you think of Jaymie?” Daven asked me as we walked around the mall. It was a
nice day and I love shopping. I dragged him with me and he didn’t complain like
Aubrey would have done.
“She’s
alright,” I shrugged. She seemed like someone I couldn’t trust just by the way
she acts in general. I get a bad vibe from her and I trust my vibes.
“Oh no,
what don’t you like about her?” He turned to look at me. It’s not like I don’t
like her, I don’t know her. I just will keep my eye on her to make sure that my
intuition wasn’t right.
“It’s
nothing about her personally. It just seems as though there’s something between
her and Drake,” I crossed my arms as it got colder. I didn’t like the way that
they looked at each other after they came out of that room. Their interaction
with each other completely changed and it didn’t look like they just met.
“Here,” he
took off his jacket and handed it to me. He’s such a gentleman when he does
little stuff like this. He’s a sweetheart and it’s nice to know that there are
some nice men left in this world.
“Thank
you,” I pecked his cheek before putting it on. It was so warm and I was
thankful. I don’t know what I was thinking when I didn’t grab a jacket on my
way out of my house.
“You guys
make such a cute couple,” and old lady walked up to us. Do we really look like
a couple? Can a guy and girl just be friends without people making a big deal
about it?
“Oh
we’re-,” I was cut off by Daven.
“Thank you.
This is my wife and she’s pregnant with our first child. It’s nice that after
all these years, people still think we’re a cute couple,” Daven smiled at her
before walking away. After she was out of sight, we cracked up laughing.
“You are a
fool,” I pushed him. He makes too many jokes but he kept me laughing and it’s
nice to just laugh sometimes.
“Hey, I
just went with the flow,” he shrugged as we began walking again. “But naw, I
noticed it too. It’s like she knows him or something. They’re both from Toronto
and both know Kolbie so I doubt they didn’t run into each other at least once,”
he explained.
“Do you
want to sit them down and ask them?” I questioned. I don’t think Aubrey would
tell me the truth if I flat out asked him.
“I got a
better idea,” he smirked. Nothing good ever comes from that smirk so I mentally
prepared myself for whatever he was about to do.
~
“Tell us
how they know each other,” Daven demanded from Kolbie.
“I told you
that they don’t,” she glared at him. He loosened his grip on her favorite
purse. If he let it drop, it would be covered in muddy water. I wouldn’t fish
that out because I saw a dog poop there not too long ago. “Don’t do this
Daven!” She stomped her foot.
“Tell us,”
he almost let it go.
“Fine!” She
grabbed her purse from him quickly. “They grew up together,” she sighed.
“What!?”
Daven and I shrieked. They grew up together and they just acted like they didn’t
know each other?
“They were
best friends and took each other’s virginity,” she explained. Now that just
make me wanna kill him and that bitch.
“I’m gonna
kill him,” I shook my head before walking out the door. When I got home, Aubrey
wasn’t there. I bet he’s with that bitch.
~
“Bye!” I
heard Aubrey say before he walked into the house. He tried to quietly creep
into our room but I turned on the light.
“Were you
with Jaymie?” I cocked an eyebrow. He looked shocked from seeing me but I just
waited for him to say something.
“Why would
I be with her?” He looked nervous. Lying to me wouldn’t be a good idea right
now when I’m pissed.
“I dare you
to lie to me Aubrey,” I glared at him and for the first time ever, he looked
terrified of me. He damn right should be.
